Alex weakly looked at Claire, causing her heart to beat faster. “Women.” Alex continued with a smile, staring blankly at the books lined up on his shelf, “I spent my time working and pursuing my dreams, trying to find meaning in my life. After achieving it along with a comfortable life, I tried to chase after something beyond material things.

"I don't think Camus would support his desire for suicide. I hope you are not thinking about committing suicide too?" "No, I am not. I just met this strange guy in a party who was just tired of living. I stopped talking to him because he was acting really weird. He says he is a Christian but he is something else. If you ask him if he is happy, he says apathetic. If you say life is meaningless, he says wrong. If you say life is meaningful, he says flaw.

The Devourer visibly recoiled, its conceptual weight shifting away from the light. Because those small, fragile scenes contained a localized density it could not break down or comprehend. Meaning. Not a grand, overarching cosmic destiny, but deeply personal meaning. Human meaning. The literal reason existence mattered in the first place. The Creator's eyes shone with tears of pure starlight. "Look at them," they whispered into the void. "Look at what survived the dark."

My fingers clenched around the candy, its stiff edge almost cutting my palm. Indeed, in our previous lives, he had been convinced that my only purpose was to be a blood bank and organ donor to Susie. Since Susie still died after I donated my kidney, that meant I served no purpose in this life, and the Grants had no reason to bring home a loser like me. I smiled, violently wiping the tears I couldn't fight back as I told myself—the old Yvie Grant was dead and I would live only for myself.

I guess driving the night shift,tiredness is a part of it. Thankfully he stamped my ticket and I walked down the Isle of the bus. The second Isle I've walked down tonight. I was feeling the eyes on me as I slipped into my seat,I'm just being paranoid. It's just Paranoia. Sitting half way down the bus,I moved across and sat on the seat by the window. I rested my red backpack on the empty seat beside me. That's about all I brought with me to start my life over.I rested my head back against the headrest,gazing out the window as the bus left the station. I thought back to that day, the day I met HIM..

Because the most revealing lies are the ones people tell someone else. person section remains unchanged. ⸻ Elena’s POV I don’t breathe properly until I’m three blocks away from the club. The air feels thin, like I have to work for every inhale. My footsteps sound too loud on the pavement, so I slow them, force myself to look ordinary. No rushing. No scanning. Nothing that says I’m anything other than a woman heading home after a long shift. My flat feels too small when I step inside. Too quiet. I lock the door and rest my forehead against it, counting to ten before I move again.

Are you going to threaten me with suicide again? I brushed the dust off my luggage and asked while enunciating each word, "Who told you that I'm going to kill myself?" Heartless people like Emil and Sarah could live good lives, and it wasn't easy for me to get a second shot at life. Why should I kill myself? Emil snickered and said nothing. His eyes were full of disdain. Following closely behind him, Sarah said, "Penny, you can just tell Emil nicely that you would like to attend his birthday party.

"Ian, I was wrong. I'll admit to the mistake. Please let me out. I can't breathe in here. "Ian, please let me out. I'm suffocating. I could hardly breathe in here. "Ian…" While reading those unsent messages, Ian felt his vision turn black. He plopped down on the floor.

There was definitely something wrong with me. I sighed and placed the diary that contained my darkest desires and secrets next to me. God forbid someone had the chance to read it. I took the bottle of water from the fridge and placed it on the counter. I opened the cabinet above my head and grabbed a glass and poured water in it and started drinking. What am I doing with my life?
